Our seventh FAST CAST discusses what similarities exist between different agencies when referring to the SBIR/STTR packages. This CAST focuses on what are the common areas between SBIR/STTR packages between the different federal funding agencies that participate in the SBIR/STTR programs, what comprises some of those sections, what to be cognizant of for the similarities between these agencies, and most importantly, what to be aware of for the differences. This is highly relevant, as sometimes, if you write a SBIR/STTR package to a particular agency, you might find it doesn’t share certain key characteristics for a different agency you might submit a very similar package to. This can possibly cause your proposal to be returned without review, so make sure to always be aware of the particular language a federal funding agency uses in their SBIR/STTR announcements.
